“Is it possible to think slow in the age of AI?” – Friday, 9/19

“Is it possible to think slow in the age of AI?”

Discussion Leaders: Ruth Tsuria, Assoc. Prof. of Communication and Media and Judith Stark, Professor of Philosophy and the Environment

Sept. 19, 12:30pm – 1:30pm, in Teams

In the media-saturated, hectic and busy lives—both professional and personal—how can we find ways to de-compress and unwind?  The book entitled The Slow Professor can help us enormously with these difficult challenges.  Published almost ten years ago and written by Maggie Berg and Barbara K. Seeber, the authors present creative strategies to address challenges faculty face in their academic lives. The session will specifically touch on how we as faculty are bombarded with more tasks, more media, and more technologies that we are encouraged to adopt.

In this session, we can listen and learn how these technologies can be used “for good,” along with how to stay centered in a constantly moving world.  What strategies does the “slow movement” offer us in today’s AI generated work environments?  Come and join this important and highly relevant conversation.
